...ltaneously on the web site of Nature Genetics, and focuses on one variant in a gene called interleukin-7 receptor (IL-7R), which researchers had thought was connected to the disease and now know increases the risk of MS. Scientists have known for 30 years that genetics play a critical role in MS, but the d...

...for the mechanism behind that risk. Their model focuses on a phenomenon that can easily be seen on modern medical-imaging scans: the presence of blood clots in the channel created when the layers of the aorta separate like two layers of an onion. This channel, called the false lumen, runs alongside the tr...
